Katy Perry — now dating Ghostbuster Dan Florence + The Machine guitarist Robert Aykroyd — is taking a break from showbiz after her doc Katy Perry: Part Of Me is released, in order to let her heart and/or cupcake boobs heal after Aldous Snow poured Malibu rum all over them and devoured them en flambé. If she spends more than 14 months on this break, precisely the length of her marriage to Russell Brand, let's safely assume she's going straight Dominique Swain on us, vanishing into the ether, never to be seen again. No, but actually she'll be back in like a week after she's gone to her vacation house and massaged some more hit songs out of her smarting innards. [Musicrooms.net, Contact Music]

National treasure Chris Pine told Jay Leno that no, he will not be playing Christian Grey in Fifty Shades of Grey, but he is flattered that so many people (nobody?) foisted it on him (asked him). "Look, I was on a red carpet in Las Vegas, and someone asked me and the only reason I knew about it is that every woman in my life has read this trilogy... And I said yeah sure, if it comes around, blah blah blah as you do [but] I'm not doing it, no." I think Dan Aykroyd should do it since he has all that free time from not dating Katy Perry.

At the Isle of Wight festival, Kelis diplomatically fielded a question about ex-husband Nas' use of the bright green wedding dress in which she married him in 2005 on the cover of his 10th album, Life Is Good: "My feelings about it are not really relevant... For someone in hip-hop to kind of be genuine and honest, whatever the honesty is about, I think it's awesome. So my feelings about it aren't really necessarily valid, it's just the fact that as an artist I can respect that he wears his feelings on his sleeve." [Blackbook]

71-year-old Jeopardy host Alex Trebek (as in "I put my underwear back on to investigate my hotel room robbery") is in good spirits at Cedar-Sinai after suffering a minor heart attack on Saturday, doubtlessly thanks to the shenanigans of Darell Hammond's Sean Connery. It is his second heart attack since 2007, after which he took a hiatus from the show to recover and continue sleeping in the nude. Should he take one this year, he'll be stiff competition for Dan Aykroyd in Fifty Shades of Grey. [LA Times]

In February of this year, Rufus Wainwright's opera Prima Donna premiered in Brooklyn to little fanfare, and next time around he plans to get more personal: he's currently at work on a musical film called Great White Way, based loosely on his life. "We're really early in that process... Perhaps it's more of a kind of mythic Rufus that he's trying to create. It stems from some of my past glories and tragic endings, but it's by no means a biography of me or anything." Hard not to have high hopes for something with a title that sounds like Moby Dick fanfiction and/or pornography featuring the sexploits of a scrappy White Supremacist heroine. Right? RIGHT? [NME]

Aaron Eckhart and Jamie Foxx will play US presidents and Channing Tatum and Gerard Butler their Secret Service men in two different political thrillers that sound equally ab-y and pec-y. There will also be a less-ab-oriented, fusty and abrasive version starring Charlie Sheen and Mel Gibson. [Contact Music, Express]

"As a woman, [becoming a mother] is the most wonderful thing that can happen to you," says Penelope Cruz, to whom it can be safely asserted that many other wonderful things have happened. [Showbiz Spy]

Responding to allegations of 'Ye boyfriend fakery, Kim Kardashian says, "It's your heart you're playing with... I couldn't sacrifice my heart for a publicity stunt." Duh, of course not, since she has a bedazzled iPhone G4 where her heart should be. [HuffPo]

Seth MacFarlane and Rumer Willis palled around at an after-afterparty for his new movie Ted. All I can picture is the irreverent cutaway where Peter Griffin tells her she spells her name wrong and farts in her face. [NYDN]

The eldest Hemsworth, Luke, 32, is joining brothers Liam and Chris in Los Angeles to pursue acting. I want a ballet-inspired fight with the Wilson brothers a la West Side Story. Cool! Yeah! Cool! Go! [Digital Spy]
